Dear Board:
I am writing to you today to express my concern over the delay of
the opening of the Salvation Army Senior Home named Silvercrest,
located on Appian Way in E1 Sobrante.
To my understanding the County will not do a final inspection on
the property until the Salvation Army pays $100, 000.00 to build a
park in that community hence delaying the move in of many needy
senior citizens. I was also told that the Salvation Army has
made many code upgrades on the creek running behind the building
at a large expense.
I do not know all the legalities nor the County's side of the
issue. I do know that many seniors are waiting, being greatly
inconvenienced and some are in dangerous locations awaiting the
approval of the County. One example is my Aunt. She is seventy-
eight years old and lives in a very high crime, low poverty area
in Richmond on Section 8 housing. She is a prisoner in her own
home. She is afraid to go out or even open her door in that
area. Her health has declined and she needs to be closer to
relatives that live in the E1 Sobrante area to tend to her needs
and doctor appointments.
Surely, the County can resolve these issues with the Salvation
Army without holding our senior citizens hostage. The Salvation
Army is adding a greatly needed service to the community. I
respectfully ask the Board to recommend that the inspection be
completed immediately and let the senior citizens move in to
their needed housing.
Sincerely,
&tea, Eu��-
